Is there a / command or key for targetting corpses? Once the animal is dead, the corpse wont be picked up by the tab targetting. After killing a bunch of spiders or something, its a pain to have to click on each corpse individually to /harvest hide/bone/meat. I was hoping there was a corpse targeting command that would cycle corpses like tab cycles live targets, but I can't seem to find one. Is there?

When I am fighitng a creature I usually like to hit the tab key to target it and continue to fight until it dies. I used to use the mouse to harvest, but now I use harvest macros. So when said creature dies my cursor is still on it because I targeted it and I click my macro shortcut and bang I harvest! I hope that answers your question. So "tab" should be your friend because it helps you save the time in moving your mouse over the possible animal or npc and click on them, plus there is no risk of accidentally attacking something you wanted to "consider" and the tabbing helps that.

Harvesting as you kill will only work if you are in melee range. Someone who uses a rifle, or any range weapon for that matter, won't be able to do this.

To cycle through corpses, use ctrl-shift-' and ctrl-shift-;.

That's what I was looking for. Thanks Skaw. Clicking on half a dozen corpses, one at a time was very painful.
